    The Curious Case of the Late David Horowitz

    Soon he was renouncing even his dead parents’ memberships in the Communist Party when they were raising him in Queens. He began a hard turn toward the right. His denunciations of his former comrades devolved into a bitter resentment, and his scorched-earth tactics remained rooted in a Trotskyite Manichaeism that continued to mark his worldview.

    He found rich backers to fund his fulminations. He excoriated America’s colleges and elite universities as Trojan Horses harboring diehard Marxist professors who, in his view, had bent the pedagogy to the inculcation of ideological biases in their young charges. He mentored Stephen Miller, now Trump’s Gauleiter of immigration. In many respects, Steve Bannon could be said to be Horowitz’s Frankenstein.
